Josh Giddey: *********** NBA star stuns with local basketball cameo appearance in Melbourne suburb Frankston

Imagine rolling up to your Monday night social basketball game to realise you’ve got the daunting assignment of guarding Aussie NBA star Josh Giddey.

The Chicago Bulls gun made a surprise cameo in the Melbourne suburb of Frankston, filling in for the ‘Vales’ against ‘Benny’s Boys’ in a setting that was far from what he’s used to these days.

Less than three weeks after the Bulls’ play-in exit at the hands of Miami, Giddey was back in red and ****** – but this time, it wasn’t in front of more than 21,000 fans at Chicago’s United Center.

It was on Court 5 at Frankston Basketball Stadium, in front of a crowd of family and friends before plenty more players came to tune in as word spread around the venue.

Giddey showed moments of why he’s become Australia’s brightest basketball star, including an emphatic chase-down block.

But ‘Benny’s Boys’ ran away with a 110-84 victory that they’re unlikely to forget anytime soon.
